Anybody know what this means ??It comes on for about 10 minutes when I turn the headlights on then goes off .All the while all lights are working fine .Ive already done the resolder thing on the relay board .That did fix the passenger side head light going off intermittently .There where several cold solder joints on it.

Mainly a pain in the *** is what it is.

Ive checked all my rear bulbs and from time to time, when I bump my system I get that warning light.

I guessing it detects a lower draw on the circuit or something ??It does it even if I just turn the corner lamps on ..Weird .

Not completely, the connections are old and loose, somtimes when I am at a stop light and have the brake applied, the warning light blinks like mad.

I would go to AutoZone and get you Alternator checked. It sounds like an issue. If you have an voltmeter, you could have someone sit in the car and press the brake while the headlights are on and see how low the volts drop. If below 12v you got a problem. The voltage regulator could be on the way out.

Not the alternator warning light goes on but rather the light bulb not working light.

My issue is the lamp warning light on the dash ..Not the alternator light.
